2023 GMC Sierra 1500 AT4x AEV Build

[Johnv76]

No new studs needed. Actually got 7 to 8 full turns on the lug nuts. Gave me a perfectly flush look with the upper fender to the outside of the tires. Alao provided a little more room between the inside of the tire and the UCA. This wasn't needed, just did it for looks basically.

Sounds like I’m going to have to get studs with going to the .5 inch spacer. Better order those now as well. I’m too close for my comfort with stock 18” rims

Before installing the studs give it a try, you may be ok the .5 spacer.

Well tried to see if I’d get lucky and barely got 4 full turns so I will be replacing the wheel studs with longer ones this weekend

New ditch lights. Slowly replacing the Rough Country lights. These are so much brighter and better quality.

Looks good! What bracket did you use for the extra antenna mount?

New product from Overland Defense. Their Fog light mounts for the GMC Sierra 1500 AT4x AEV front bumper. First impressions are good. Mounts are well made, and appear very durable considering they are 3D printed. These mounts fit up nicely in the bumper and are very secure. The Baja Design...

I just order the overland kit but looking at the Baja lights and need some advise. Did you order the wiring harness or just hardwire it to a switch instead of tapping into existing fog lights? Also is it really 250 for a single light or is that a pair and they just don’t call that out?

Yes i ordered both the lights, and the wiring harness. I have everything wired to my AuxBeam 8 gain switch panel. Yes, Baja Design lights are expensive, but they are worth it if you can afford them. Their build quality, there light output, and company are very good. I had all Rough Country lights, but boy the build quality and light output is far greater on these Baja Design lights.If your ordering the Pros, yes they are 236.95 each. I only did the Squadron Pros for my ditch lights, the Squadron sports are my front and rear bumpers. Even the sports throw a ton of light. So you could save a little money by doing just the sports instead of the pros.

I guess I just am comparing the pod lights with Baja that wasn’t that bad. Either way I’m ordering a pair of Baja lights. I’m old and remember kc lights at Walmart being 50 for a pair

I remember the KC lights also. Had them on a few of my trucks back in the day, mid 90's lol!
